BUTTON
(Noun)
Like on a shirt or jacket.
pe'i {batke} ranges over both button on shirts and keyboards, just like it's English counterpart.

I think this is a mistake. Shirt buttons fasten, keyboard and screen buttons don't. 

They are all similar shapes, and that is why they are all batke.
 
stevo

BUTTON
(Verb)
Like what you do with a button.

Something like {batke}+{catke}/{lasna}?


It seems like this *really* should have been base-game content.
What were the developers thinking? Seriously...
(Also, food for thought, why does something begin passively and end agentively? cfari / sisti)
But then you might be able to easily construct lujvos to get this distinction:
Passively: {cfari} {tolcfa} 
Agentively: {sisti} {tolsti}
